Subject: [PATCH 1/2] powerpc/fadump: exclude memory holes while reserving
 memory in second kernel

References: bsc#1092772
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
Git-commit: b71a693d3db3abd1ddf7d29be967a1180c3ebb22

The second kernel, during early boot after the crash, reserves rest of
the memory above boot memory size to make sure it does not touch any of the
dump memory area. It uses memblock_reserve() that reserves the specified
memory region irrespective of memory holes present within that region.
There are chances where previous kernel would have hot removed some of
its memory leaving memory holes behind. In such cases fadump kernel reports
incorrect number of reserved pages through arch_reserved_kernel_pages()
hook causing kernel to hang or panic.

Fix this by excluding memory holes while reserving rest of the memory
above boot memory size during second kernel boot after crash.
